    Random Events
    Something has happened! Random events are back on the mobile-friendly pages of Neopia, where you can have a bank error in your favor or even get a visit from Dr. Sloth himself!

    Bug Fixes
    We've been squashing a few bugs since our last release! Here are some fixes you may have already noticed:

    • Wheels will no longer disappear when clicked on and fail to display prizes.
    • Wheel of Monotony no longer spins indefinitely if the player switches tabs.
    • Database updates and miscellaneous fixes.

    Known Issues
    • The Faerie Bubbles Game has a balancing issue where colours not remaining in-game will show up to shoot, making the levels very difficult to pass. We are working to address this issue ASAP.
    • You cannot currently collect neopoints after playing the new games, we are working to update this week.

    What's Next
    • The team is still hard at work bringing additional Pet Slots to Neopets! We’re aiming for a holiday release.
    • We are bringing a fresh new look to the Advent Calendar just in time for the holidays. More details to come!
    • Call us cartographers, we are continuing to improve and bring maps up to date for the site.

    I'm glad they finally updated the inventory page, but am surprised they didn't include a link to the safety deposit box as well honestly. (Unless there's a way to access it from there already that I'm not aware of.)

    Their list of priorities seem a bit off. Has UC customisation been fixed yet? Seems way more important than introducing a new theme...

    That quick stock and transfer log is very much appreciated!

    I do agree with @(you need an account to see links). It would be really nice to have the sdb linked too. Like the idea as well of the searches in SW being to refresh it.

    We don't need that much updates on the themes, wheels and scratchcards right now. They should just focused on it later on. Tsk.

    Thanks for the update.
    Beta has been out for three weeks, and we got updates that could have been done in literally an hour.

    This is how desperate we have become...

    “More converted wheels”

    If it takes them this long to convert things we will never have working content to replace flash.


    The known issues section says a lot.

    A premium link should take 30 seconds to fix. It cannot be that hard.

    Customization issues I can kind of understand. It’s obviously their biggest generator of revenue, and it should have been a priority, but that is a huge undertaking. Apparently some items they’re converting look different too, which is a little shitty.

    The boards are filled with requests to fix small things, all of which should take minutes.

    No update would have been better IMO. This is sad...

    People keep praising TNT which is the part that’s driving me crazy. Goodbye avatars, trophies and high scores.

    I just can’t believe in a time as critical as this that someone sat there and was like “Yep! Wheels and Scratchcards! That’ll make em happy!”
    Could they be any more out of touch? How about fix customizations? Or idk.. anything else on the site. The world maps even? Get games sending scores properly?
    Shit at this point I’d just like to see my closet items. That’d be swelll. T.T

    I swear I want to be happy that we got some updates and movement. Quickstock and the Shop Wiz are nice, but having more time to dwell on it..it fees too little too late.

    Also, shoutout to everyone making scripts to make this beta more bearable and the site easy to navigate since TNT doesn't seem to want to. Y'all Neopets MVPS.

    I'm very glad with all the fixes, but I have to agree with everyone here too. They rolled out Beta poorly and have even poorer priorities. Why would anyone care about a site theme that some barely use only for the month of December? If they're gonna focus on site themes, then I'd rather them focus on retired plot related ones that some have had for 10+ years.

    This just screams they have no road map or sense of direction on where they're going with this and it's gonna take forever to get this all converted.

    Yea this definitely smacks of a "make it look like we're doing something" update.

    Definitely pleased to have the shop wizard resubmit button, but the rest of this is fairly pointless.

    I'm sure they are working on the more important issues too, but these are the things they managed to complete. They're probably mixing in small fixes with the bigger ones in their work.

    Ugh. As of late, all I do on neopets is play Sahkmet Solitaire and do my goddamn dailies and even doing that with this new layout just... bums me out.

    Is there a way to apply a layout that only applies to how /you/ see the site? Like... even just removing the formatting altogether would be an improvement over the beta thing. Altadorian constellations is cool I guess, but is a million times worse than Grey Day

    I feel like the others are just unbearable to look at?? I don't know why you would make your site/product so viscerally uncomfortable to look at?
